Attic Productions presents “The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes,” adapted by Jon Jory and directed by Dixie Hartvigsen, continuing this week. The show runs May 22-25, with Thursday and Friday performances at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday shows at 2:30 p.m.
The game is afoot—and the gears of destiny begin to turn. Step into the fog-laced alleys and brass-bolted chambers of Victorian London, where the legendary partnership of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson sparks to life amidst steam and smoke. Join them as they unravel a quartet of the most baffling cases ever to rattle the rivets of 221B Baker Street. What secret lies within the mechanical workings of a Christmas goose gone astray? Who hides behind the cipher of a clockwork cult devoted to the past? What sinister force drives a family of card players into the grip of madness? And what danger lurks beneath the polished gears of a governess’s rural estate?
See four Sherlock Holmes and four Dr. Watsons as they solve a quartet of confounding crimes. Based on four classic short stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the actors bring answers to these mysteries to the Attic stage in a unique and creative presentation.
